Your idea in one sentence. Pictures are more worth than words.

I think Ships would look better if they had more empty space, paths rooms in them.

What?
What do you want to suggest

Introduce breakage and maintenance through some sort of repair robots that would require you to leave empty spaces that they can move through ship to repair it when something breaks.

Why do you want it

I think they'll be looking more interesting if they could have some empty spaces, distinct rooms; instead of being full solid block of stuff that blurs together.

There’s a reason they’re called space “platforms” and not space “ships”. They’re not really meant to be anything like traditional scifi spaceships, but rather factories with thrusters. They don’t even have a traditional hull, unless you place some stone walls and pretend they are one.

it's a game lol who care, there is a lot of peoples who actually love design platform that look like skip in map, reddit is full of that.

I think that with the hubs limitations, and the fact that most designs use belts in one way or the other, belts could be seen as paths, no?
